I'm looking to put together a list of good games for first time dnu listeners to try before they tackle large games like Frieda's. Campaigns are fine, but I'd prefer one shots if possible.
-
Would def recommend the eclipse phase campaign because of the cohesive, tight story (plus relatively short). the only downside is the mechanics/ world building can be tough to parse sometimes.
-
"Devil's Bazaar" and "Traveling Bazaar"? Both really fun Monsters& games.
-
The two Coyote Cops Delta Green games (Puppet Shows and Shadow Plays & Disciples of the Worm), and two Mt. Pleasant Little Fears Games (A Nightmare in Mount Pleasant & Monster Masque) were some of my first episodes and did well to introduce me to the system. Any of the Fiasco games are also good.
-
If there's one thing I recommend to everyone myself, it's Robert Hodgins Must Die and pretty much anything in Fiasco
-
Robert Hodgins Must Die
I still relisten to that game every so often for a good laugh. Definitely the best thing we ever recorded.
-
Man, I do not remember that game very well. I was more than a little impaired. I mostly remember confusing "Union" as Union versus Confederates and union leaders as opposed to factory workers constantly. But apparently everyone wanted to kill me, so...

As a longish time listener (2-3 years or so by now? I think that counts?) and first time poster, I'm going over what I've got downloaded right now. Engine Heart - 1 Shot: People Day is one of the funniest 1 Shots I've listened to that hasn't been mentioned yet. I've gotta recommend Robert Hodgins Must Die as well though.
-
Definitely Journey to the West. It's my go-to game when I just want to be happy.
